ACamera



My name is Angela Camera and this is my first semester in the Graduate School of Education at Fordham University. I am currently perusing a Master’s of Science in Teaching Adolescent English Education. I graduated from Binghamton University in May of 2009 with a B.A. in English and a B.S. in Human Development. While in Binghamton, I was a teacher's assistant for the Theatre Department and an avid member of Alpha Phi where I served as Director of New Member Education, Director of Program Development, Director of Alumni Relations, and a member of the Philanthropy Committee. I spent a great deal of my free time as a volunteer for the Southern Tier AIDS Program. While in this role, I visited numerous high school classrooms to teach about HIV awareness and prevention.

After interning at Goldman Sachs for three consecutive summers an internship opportunity at Binghamton High School inspired me to become an educator. While in Binghamton High School I worked with special education and classroom teachers to provide academic assistance and support while acting as a role model/mentor to ninth grade students at risk of academic failure complicated by behavior, emotional, or social problems. In addition to school I am currently student teaching in a 10th grade class at Plainedge High School and working at an Italian restaurant in Long Island.
